Life in the 22nd century will be different from that in the 21st century, because many changes will take place.The population is growing fast.There will be more and more people in the world and most of them will live longer than before.Computers will be much smaller and more useful, and there will be at least one in every home.And computer studies will be one of the most important subjects at school.
People will work fewer hours than they did in the 21st century, and they will have more free time for sports, watching TV and traveling.Traveling will be much easier.And more people will go to other countries for holidays.
There will be changes in our food, too.More land will be used for building new towns and houses.Then there will be less room for cows and sheep, so meat will be more expensive.Maybe no one will eat it every day; instead they eat more vegetables and fruit.In this way people will be healthier.
Work in the future will be different, too.Robots will do dangerous and hard work.Because of this, many people will not have enough work to do.This will be a problem.

When people talk about smart work and hard work, they usually wonder which one is more important.In fact, smart work is more important.But working smartly is very hard. This is not a wordplay.It is not easy to be smart.
What is "smartness"?
People are smart when they can find out a way to bring more results with less effort(努力).If you can achieve the same results without putting in a lot of work, you are smart.The person pushing the vehicle is smart, because he is using the knowledge and wisdom(智慧), and the hard work of some other people.
How can we work smartly?
Creating that wheel isn't easy.It needs a great thinker, followed by an engineer's hard work.It then needs a handy man.Only then does it become easier to push the material using the machine.So, smart work is not easy at all.
Besides, being smart takes a lot of effort.People need to read more, keep learning new things, try to learn from others' experiences and sharpen their thinking skills.They need to predict the results before putting any effort in any direction, and being able to manipulate the given resources(资源) to meet their needs.
Human beings are smart.The human history shows our smartness.We don't need to go hunting for our food any more, because we were smart enough to find out that farming could bring much more food with much less effort.We then developed modern tools for farming.
Humans also invented the Internet, the wheel, clothes, the smart phones—all the tools that help us to work smartly.All of this is hard, but that hard work makes us smart.Because of smartness, we are much better off today in terms of happiness and richness.
